Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Jingye cursed in his heart: She is indeed a lowly merchant girl. What my mother said is right. This kind of woman only knows how to curry favor with the powerful and is easily fickle.
However, Xuanyuan Jingye still pretended to be affectionate as usual. He looked at Liu Ruyue with affection and asked with the appearance of a handsome young man:
"Yue'er, what did my mother say?"
Hearing the man's familiar words, Liu Ruyue pursed her lips and sneered, without answering, curious about what other speechless words the man could say.
Xuanyuan Jingye saw that Liu Ruyue did not answer him, and thought that she was not willing to say bad things about his mother.
He continued to deceive women as he always did: "Yue'er, my mother treats you like that because there is a huge gap between our status and yours.
I am attracted to you and want to grant you the position of my consort, but my mother loves her son dearly and wants to help me find a marriage that is of equal status.
Yue'er, do you know how difficult it is for me to be caught between you two?"
When he said this, Xuanyuan Jingye's face still showed an embarrassed and sad expression. He looked at Liu Ruyue with longing and continued to coax her affectionately: "Yue'er, let's work hard together and try to get our families to agree that we should be together, okay?
My mother is not a bad person. If you are gentle, she will see the good in you sooner or later..."
The man has a pair of peach blossom eyes, and he looks at people with deep affection. It is easy to fall into it when he disguises himself like this.
Before, Liu Ruyue was immersed in such a loving and gentle offensive, and obediently tried to please Xuanyuan Jingye's mother, Zhou Churan.
But now, Liu Ruyue is unwilling.
Since you can stand up and be a human being, who would be willing to kneel down and be bullied?
"Yue'er~ You have to believe my feelings for you. I really want you to be my woman. My true love for you is clear to all!"
Seeing that the woman did not nod excitedly as she did before when she heard his affectionate confession, indicating that she would definitely please his mother, Xuanyuan Jingye felt strange in his heart and added another sentence tentatively.
This time, the charming woman sitting in the main seat slowly raised her head and looked over.
There was a hint of coldness in his pair of eyes, and the smile on his lips was full of sarcasm. His voice was also unusually cold:
"Hmph, Young Prince Jingye, since you feel that the gap between our status and yours is too great, then we should just stop associating."
“…”
Xuanyuan Jingye thought about it over and over again, but he never imagined that this woman would treat him like this.
"Yue'er? What happened? Why have you changed?"
Xuanyuan Jingye stood up anxiously and nervously wanted to approach Liu Ruyue, but was stopped by the maid from the Goddess Palace.
"Changed?"
Liu Ruyue rolled her eyes and sarcastically taunted Xuanyuan Jingye, "Didn't Prince Jingye's mother say that a woman like me is not truly sincere? I only pretend to be sincere in order to gain power and influence."
"No, Yue'er, I don't believe it."
Xuanyuan Jingye was a little confused by Liu Ruyue's unconventional words, but he quickly recovered his appearance as a loving nobleman, staring at Liu Ruyue and shouting:
"Yue'er, you are not that kind of woman in my heart. You like me as a person, not because of my power and status."
"snort!"
Hearing the man's words, Liu Ruyue felt a chill in her heart: What a bastard, he clearly knew the original owner's true intentions, but he still wanted to trample on the original owner's sincerity.
"Little Prince Jingye, what about you?"
With her slender eyebrows raised slightly, Liu Ruyue looked at Xuanyuan Jingye with a hint of sarcasm and asked in a cold voice, "Are you attracted to me, Liu Ruyue, or are you attracted to the Liu family's wealth that comes with being the only daughter of the Liu family?"
“…”
When Xuanyuan Jingye heard the woman say this, he felt a little flustered: How did she know all this?
However, this panic only lasted for a few moments.
Xuanyuan Jingye was indeed a scumbag who was cheating on three women at the same time. He quickly regained his composure and looked at Liu Ruyue with his affectionate peach blossom eyes, which contained a bit of heartache:
"Yue'er, I treat you with all my heart, how could you miss me like this?"
This reason seemed to convince even himself: "I come from a wealthy and powerful family. I have everything I want. How could I covet your Liu family's property?"
hehe!
This may be enough to fool the original body, but if you want to fool Liu Ruyue, you’re dreaming!
Liu Ruyue, who was sitting in the main seat, was not moved by the hidden sadness on the man's face. She played with her delicate fingers, raised her head, looked at the man nonchalantly and said, "Since Young Prince Jing Ye doesn't covet my Liu family's property, then please return all the things I sent to your Jingwang Mansion in the past..."
“…”
“???”
Xuanyuan Jingye didn't expect that after making this trip, not only did he not get anything, but he even had to return everything he had. Even though he was deeply upset, he couldn't help but show a shocked expression at this moment.
However, Liu Ruyue ignored him. Seeing the man's shocked and puzzled expression, she sneered and asked, "Why? Young Prince Jing Ye wants to be a whore and make a name for himself, while taking my Liu family's treasures and claiming that he doesn't care about my Liu family's wealth?"
"Liu Ruyue!!!"
Liu Ruyue's words were very unpleasant. She actually compared a little prince to a bitch. Xuanyuan Jingye could no longer hold back and scolded her harshly.
The man's eyes were red and he was about to go forward and teach Liu Ruyue a lesson.
But he was stopped by a maid who knew martial arts.
Realizing that the people in the room were all arranged by His Majesty, Xuanyuan Jingye could only hold back his anger. He took a few deep breaths before forcing out a smile and continued to pretend to be affectionate towards Liu Ruyue:
"Yue'er, I like you so much, how can you say that to me?
You are a merchant girl. If I were not sincere to you, which noble man would be willing to marry you?"
…
Hearing the scumbag trying to pua her again, Liu Ruyue hurriedly called a halt: "Little Prince Jingye, we are talking about returning the things now, please don't change the subject, okay?"
Hearing the woman's words, Xuanyuan Jingye was even more shocked: Why doesn't this woman buy it?
In the past, as long as I used the other person's background to suppress them, they would fall to the ground and be eager to please me.
But now, not only did the woman not admit her mistake, she even became more confrontational.
Sighing, Xuanyuan Jingye could only reveal a helpless expression, staring at Liu Ruyue and said:
"Yue'er, I don't know what happened during this period of time, why you became like this.
However, my feelings for you are true, and you also know that my mother is not satisfied with your background. If I go back now to ask for the things you gave her, she will probably hate you even more in the future.
By then, if you want to enter the palace of Prince Jing, I am afraid that..."
